I can be many things?
People say;
I can be many things.
You're full of something.
I always thought it means "multi-talented,"
or "You're full of surprises."
But I couldn't find any source back it up from my/online dictionaries.
At least, I think it means positive.
BUT a nice gentleman told me it's not the same meaning,
and the latter is more of an ambiguous, kind of negative statement.
So now I have two different questions.
What exactly does these mean?
Is there any similar expressions?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance<3I think I need more research and maybe I'll ask them again.
Thank you!

"You're full of something" is a euphemistic way of saying "you're full of cr@p" (or another word that means the same thing as cr@p). The listener is meant to fill in the blank (and here "something" is the blank), and in that way it's slightly humorous. But I don't know the song so I don't know whether there it's meant teasingly and light-heartedly, or in a bitter and mean way. :)
